Antti KainulainenSculpting electronics and disassembling objects, sometimes coming up with music. Lately been trying to teach my hands to act separately. Letting the sun shine on dusty magnetic tapes. Recordings from the radio: people calling to the Luonto-ilta and imitating animals they have seen. In a party leaning over a cellphone and listening to the only rehearsal tape by my band which will probably never play again, great bassline.
